The Office is coming back with a landmark twist

Australia is getting its very own version of the franchise with an all-female led cast.
Wakefield and Inbetweeners star Felicity Ward will become the next Michael Scott and David Brent.
The brand new series will launch next year.
Filming is due to begin in Sydney next month where eight episodes will be filmed.
Felicity‘s character Hannah Howard is the managing director of packaging company Flinley Craddick.
When she gets news from Head Office that they will be shutting down her branch and making everyone work from home, she goes into survival mode, making promises she can’t keep in order to keep her “work family” together.
The staff of Flinley Craddick indulge her and must endure Hannah’s outlandish plots as they work toward the impossible targets that have been set for them.
Ricky Gervais, who co-created The Office has broken his silence on the brand new version.
He said: “I’m very excited about Australia remaking my little show from the turn of the century.
“Office politics have changed a bit in 20 years, so can’t wait to see how they navigate a modern-day David Brent.”
